Our full hands-on review of Nikon’s latest D-series dSLR entry has been published. The D7000 is a very appealing mid-level, professional camera that unitizes an all new 16-megapixel APS-C (DX-format) image sensor. This camera is loaded with impressive specifications, many of which will appeal to a wide range of photogs, including a fast 39-point AF system, burst mode shooting at up to 6fps, and a versatile sensitivity range from ISO 100 – 6400 (expandable up to ISO 25,600).

 Bad news folks! There will be no new m43 camera or lens from Olympus for the CP+ show which starts on February 9th in Yokohama. Like Panasonic, Olympus choose to introduce the next wave of new m43 products time after the CP+ show! The only new camera that will be announced is the TG-810 (with small sensor, not a m43 sensor!). The new TG-810 tough camera will be the successor of the current TG-620 compact camer a and have GPS, CMOS sensor, 26x zoom and 24mm wideangle. We found a reference of that camera inside the Henry store (via google cache ). Talking with my trusted sources it looks like Panasonic and Olympus are waiting to see what’s coming next from Pentax and Nikon (in March/April). Meanwhile notice that the E-P2 price is slowly dropping closer to the E-PL2 price suggesting that the E-P2 will be the next camera to be replaced! Amazon (Click here) and Adorama (Click here) are selling the E-P2 for less than $650. And the new E-PL2 sells for $600 at Amazon US , Adorama and BHphoto . . . . → Read More: (FT5) No new m43 camera or lens at the CP+ show!

Sony’s Alpha A580 is a 16 Megapixel DSLR featuring 1080i Full HD video and fast continuous shooting at up to 7fps.

Along with Full HD video and fast shooting, the A580 boasts in-camera HDR, 3D panoramas and multi-frame noise reduction. Ahead of our full test report, we can reveal our High ISO Noise comparison against Nikon’s D7000, a selection of HD video samples and a look at how effective the multi-frame noise reduction is in practice.
